Title:
  memory leak caused by snmp plugin for collectd 5.4.0 (trusty)

Status in collectd package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  snmp plugin for collectd 5.4.0-3ubuntu2.1 (trusty) causes a memory leak.
  The package for  5.4.1-6ubuntu1 (vivid) has already been patched.
  (See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/collectd/5.4.1-6ubuntu1)
  So I would like to backport this fix and have included a debdiff against the current package in Trusty.

  The patch is based on those commits:
  https://github.com/collectd/collectd/issues/610
  https://github.com/collectd/collectd/issues/804
